Active Vibration Control - Holy Grail?

I've been wondering if an active vibration control system such as the one linked, using advanced ceramic piezoelectrics, might be an answer to our audiophile dreams. Why absorb vibrations when you can actively cancel them?

By the way, their vibration harvesting system (on another page of their website) is also interesting - it generates a regulated 3V DC from absorbed vibrations, so you could absorb vibrations and convert them to usable DC for microcircuits as well.
